Check out my website first and then I'll tell you a lot more about the boyhood of my generation in BUILDING THE IRON following diggers around building sites as we rebuilt our town. Building the iron is the story of post war Britain highly organised after the war years regenerating and developing our manufacturing capabilities. On building sites schoolboys had a relentless presences at any town centre with rubbled buildings. Let me take you aboard a 22-RB standing behind the driver as he places girder-work on the new M&S store in Oxfords Street in 1952. Great days. BOOTS had a steam derrick crane at the back with a 100 ft boom lifting sealing tar in a bucket. 'wow'! There's a lot more I can tell you like the bucking LIMA 1201 shovel digging limestone rock on the Briton Ferry Earlswood roundabout stretch of motorway to Carmarthen. And then we are off to spend five years at the BUCYRUS FACTORY in Lincoln.
